Splinters

south sent a twister
 a tearin' after me
 gonna bust my house to splinters yes
 an' take all that's dear to me
 you say you saw it comin' yeah
 but still you did not flee
 i was too weak i couldn't move
 held by growth of a tree
 an' yes i fell upon that rock
 i did not die jus' badly broken
 an' in time my healin' it will come yeah
 by the words that he has spoken
 i fell upon that rock
 who is it now that loves you
 straight in the front door
 an' crooked out the back yeah
 what is it now you're a slave to
 on your knees out in your shack
 i fell upon that rock yeah
 he's beyond the shadow
 of your doubt an' mine
 he's no man's opinion
 he is truth divine
